Oh, V-Day...

I know you all might be wondering what one does on Valentine's Day in Ukraine - more specifically a single, vivacious, 28 year old female.

Well, I hate to disappoint you. No dates, no secret Valentines, no chocolate-covered candy hearts to give away...

Instead, I watched the littles while David took Traci on a date, watched Princess Bride with the boys, put the boys to bed, rocked Jane, fed Jane, rocked Jane, put Jane to bed, rocked Jane... made Valentines for my three little boy Valentines,


and then watched Bridget Jones' Diary*. Which in turn made me reminisce about last year's Valentine's Day... Not that it was any more eventful, just 60 degrees warmer and featured some Cheetos Puffs, a Dr. Pepper, my side-kick Averi (all of which I really miss), some self-pitying, and a little Bridget Jones to soothe my soul.

But I shouldn't be complaining. I mean, who gets to say they celebrated six of the year's biggest holidays in Ukraine, including Heart Day? That's something right? See, that makes yet another romantic-less Valentine's Day totally worth it!

Lucky for me, Valentine's is on Sunday this year so I have a little bit of an excuse to be totally LAME for like the umpteenth year in a row now.

*I wanted to post the youtube to my favorite Bridget Jones moment, but it wouldn't let me because I'm outside of the U.S. (boo, youtube!), so I hope that link works cause it's the best.
